Nice to know that Maserati Dealers charging £200 an hour haven't got a clue, they fire the parts cannon until the owner sells the car.

Had a v6 diesel jag in today , sure enough the throttle flap was sticking ,bunch if codes map air mass turbo pressure etc . Anyway the new unit was 500 quid 😮. Found out later that where the boost pipe joins the intercooler theres a sort of box/ chaimber that had split on the seam , as a result of this flap getting stuck probably. Should have smoked it also 😖....Doh! Kicking myself for that . But much thanks for the info. I knew where to look and what to look for ,thanks to you . I just need to engage the brain a bit more .👍

Still a good find but yes,I smoke everything now👍👍

WELL done THAT MAN 👍👍👍👍

Top job Jimmy.

Good job. I used to have a Citroen C4 diesel automatic and when it started to do a burn I would keep driving to let it complete the process. There was no indication on the dash, but the engine sound changed, the engine felt rough on idle. I kept it at a lower gear to keep the revs up to help the process finish, didn't take long. It's a pity there's no indicator light to let drivers know the DPF is going through a cleaning burn process. If you switch off before it completes, the whole process starts again, burns more fuel and lowers your mpg.

£800 quid for 3 oil changes??????? Bloody hell!. Costs me fifty quid to change my oil and filter myself. Perhaps I should set myself as a "Maserati oil change specialist"????? I'll be a millionaire this time next year Rodney!

Well done Mr 😎

Good Man Jimmy great job

Great job👍

Jimmy, you are a clever lad, i really enjoy your vids. That engine is a VM Motori unit. Same basic engine is in the Grand Cherokee. They like to eat crank bearings.

Great job 👍🏻

I’d say they are doing a regeneration and then an oil change , do your magic jimmy

I think maybe the dealers think regen works all the time. but once you get to a percentage % not sure what thst is? It cant break down the soot or doesn't run long enough to do so. Thats apart from other system failures sensors etc. Great video Jimmy. Dealers WTF

800 quid for an oil change.. Playing with the Big Boys.... Advice from Dealership.-we might need to do 2 or 3 oil changes.... Guess they saw an opportunity

2-3 oil changes for £800, not for 1.

Maserati diesel why ?

Jimmy, Maserati is now owned by Stellantis which owns several other brands including Alfa Romeo, Fiat and Ferrari.

FIAT bought out Abarth, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Ferrari (road cars) and Maserati, then merged with Chrysler to become FCA, then merged with Peugeot to become Stellantis. A conglomerate that will never produce a cheap simple small fast light 4 cylinder small capacity mid engine rear wheel drive easy to fix fun to drive car, because well you know why... it's all political.

The reason they won’t produce one is nobody would buy it in numbers large enough to make it profitable of affordable.

Ferrari were spun off in 2016.

Bet the dealer cleared the codes.

Definitely fiat Jimmy the rev counter ìs same as mine on mito

That's the Ecodiesel

I think Maserati is a cheaper version of Ferrari, no joke, they have Ferrari engine, not sure what the deal is with diesel since Ferrari don't think they make diesel engines

Ambient temperature sensors might not even give a fault code. They might be partly working, sometimes giving bad readings because of corroded contacts. Water tends to run down the wires in the door from the mirror, or through the window seal, and get in the connector on some cars. Another dealer unable to figure out what the real problem is.

Good job, why don’t the dealer do this as well. Just so poor on there side.

It could be that they would of done a few forced regeneration and changed the oil each time.

Maybe realising all London Taxis up till recently were diesel will help you understand why people buy diesel vehicles that live in large towns. Putting it simply they use far less fuel.

Because years before dpf egr cars went on the smell of diesel like vw and they also ran on red diesel which was some saving for van man😂

Great video jimmy, Given its likely this car has had many failed or forced regens, did you recommend the owner to have an oil & filter change.. i would also suggest they do it asap with an air filter too. It just makes sense to educate people about oil changes too, esp after dpf issues…
